More About Engineering
Engineering came from the Latin word
ingeniare. Ingeniare means to design or create.
Engineers try to design or create new products, structures, and
machines by using already available resources, and resources they
themselves created.
Specialized engineering developed around 1750. Before then it used to
be all buildings, roads, bridges, canals, or weapons! As more
knowledge about science and math was gained, specialized branches of
engineering were created. This happened around the 1700's and 1800's.
Now that there are more branches, engineers work more closely
together.
